Bombardier Virtual Manufacturing
Powerwall virtual manufacturing at Bombardier Transportation in Henningsdorf — IC.IDO, Flystick3, and ART tracking for prototype savings in the rail industry.
Virtual manufacturing in Henningsdorf
At Bombardier Transportation in Henningsdorf, a powerwall installation supports virtual manufacturing and validation of rail vehicles — prototypes are tested digitally before physical models are built.
Tracking setup
ART tracking cameras, IC.IDO visualization software, and Flystick3 interaction devices enable precise 6DOF navigation and manipulation of complex vehicle models in large-format 3D display.
Applications
- Virtual assembly: Ergonomics and accessibility checks on components and assemblies
- Design reviews: Team-based evaluation of interior and exterior concepts
- Prototype savings: Early error detection reduces costs and development time
Why ART?
Large-format powerwall VR requires stable tracking across the entire viewing volume — ART delivers the accuracy needed for reliable interaction with industrial CAD models.
